- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Notes
- For a deeper red color, use gel food coloring instead of liquid.
- Chill the brownies before slicing for cleaner cuts.

- Try serving with fresh fruit or drizzling with melted chocolate for extra flair.
- For a gluten-free version, use a 1:1 gluten-free flour substitute.
